Family festival and play paradise in Volksparkstadion Mariendorf, parallel to the legendary ROCKTREFF – two days of games, crafts, sports, free admission
The Volksparkstadion Mariendorf on Prühßstraße is a traditional sports and event venue in the Tempelhof-Schöneberg district. In summer, the area is used several times a year for open events – Spielfest and ROCKTREFF are among the oldest Berlin summer formats and have been held on the same weekend for years.
The concept is clever: While young Berlin bands (16 live acts over two days) perform on the stadium's main stage as part of ROCKTREFF, the Spielfest takes place on an adjacent area. This offers families a double program: children play, craft, and let off steam, while parents and siblings listen to live music from Berlin's upcoming rock and pop scene.
The Spielfest is clearly designed as a children's and family festival. Several stations are spread across the grounds: craft activities (from woodworking to creative painting stations), sports activities (football, table football, movement stations), interactive games, and hands-on activities for different age groups. The program is curated by the association CPYE e.V. together with the Tempelhof-Schöneberg Youth Welfare Office.
Mariendorf is a rather quiet residential area in Berlin's Tempelhof-Schöneberg district, with a long family tradition. Visitors to the Spielfest get to know southern Berlin away from the tourist paths – with good public transport connections and nearby Berlin swimming pools.
The 2026 edition brings the usual double format: Spielfest and ROCKTREFF under one weekend roof at Volksparkstadion Mariendorf. For families, this is an almost ideal summer weekend – children play, craft, and let off steam, while parents and siblings experience the live performances of young Berlin bands in parallel.
The Spielfest itself is curated by CPYE e.V. together with the Tempelhof-Schöneberg Youth Welfare Office. The stations are spread across the stadium's outdoor area and cater to different age groups. From kindergarten children to teenagers, every age group will find activities that invite participation.
Food trucks and snack stands on site. In case of rain, the program will continue in the covered areas of the stadium. Band and station selection will be announced by the organizer from May 2026 onwards.
